Have you ever been to a place before where you feel the energy of the land so potently and powerfully, like you are fully held and supported there?

I had that experience yesterday when I went to the beautiful Mt Jukes Eco Retreat. As soon as I arrived I had full body goosebumps. I was mesmerised by the beauty of the land, and the majestic Mt Jukes mountain.

In our modern, busy world, we often forget that we are sacred custodians of these great lands. We treat the land poorly, we don’t acknowledge Mother Earth and all of her beauty, wisdom, abundance and grace.

We also forget that we are always held and supported by Mother Earth, and we forget to ask for her support. She is always there for us, and acts as a steady anchor, a safe place for us to land, in amongst the smooth sailing, and the rough seas of life.

She is us, and we are her.

I feel this way about the land on which I am so blessed to live. I give great thanks each and every day for the 5 acres of beautiful land that I call home, and it is my greatest honour to be a custodian of this land.

Mother Earth and nature is my forever muse, and I honour her by connecting with her each day:

~Bare feet on the earth

~Face to the sun

~Deep breathing

~Putting my palms on a tree

~Tending to my gardens

~Crafting beautiful soul-nourishing foods and herbal medicines

~Blessing and giving thanks for my food

Plus so many more practices and rituals

Use this as a gentle reminder to connect with Mother Earth, and the sacred land upon which you live, work and play, in a way that feels true for you.

Remember that the beauty you see within nature, is a reflection of the beauty that is within you.

She is you, and you are her 🌿

If you’re feeling called to cultivate or re-ignite your connection with Mother Earth, and yourself, I’d love to invite you to join me at my upcoming Winter Mini Retreat.

Nestled in amongst nature at the foothills of Mt Jukes, it is the most perfect and beautiful place to commune with the land, and yourself.

The retreat is coming up on Sunday 7th June 10am - 2pm
